- Rensource to install 5MW solar in Baze University.
- The full installation will generate over 2,000 MWh of clean energy a year.
Africa’s fastest-growing solar power company, Rensource, will install 5-megawatt solar on the campus of a private tertiary institution in Abuja called Baze University. According to Prince Ojeabulu, CEO of Rensource, the facility will offer renewable energy to those who live near the school.
The company will finish the first phase of the 5MW solar solution’s construction in the first quarter of 2023. The installation will produce more than 2,000 MWh of clean energy throughout the project’s lifetime, saving the university 3000 metric tonnes CO2 emissions.
“We are proud of this massive 5 MW project demonstrating Rensource’s’ ability to design, fund, and execute solar projects for C&I clients. Baze University and its students, including at the new world-class teaching hospital, demand reliability to power everyday learning in classrooms, and Rensource’s’ solar installation will provide that. We look forward to designing and funding similar projects for C&I clients that play crucial roles in Africa’s modern economy and society, like Baze University.” Mr Ojeabulu said.
Still commenting on the project, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor of Baze University, Mr David Ogbonna, said, “Rensource was the clear choice for us when we were looking for a partner to develop this significant solar installation on our campus.
“Baze University identified Rensource as having the engineering and technical ability to deliver this project, and we look forward to being partners with them for years to come.”
